00:00:00Capain Baraco, Philippine coffee. It's more than just a drink. It's my culture.
00:00:21The aroma smells like rich soil, mystery, comfort, and home.
00:00:30And love. I can't even imagine life without it.
00:00:41Sometimes I think it's running right through my veins.
00:00:48Who are you talking to?
00:00:51Always dreaming and scheming, this one.
00:00:54For your drive to the airport.
00:00:56Oh, sweet girl.
00:00:57She can make coffee, okay?
00:01:00But can we trust her to run the cafe for such a long time?
00:01:04You're not going to Mars, Papa. It isn't even two weeks.
00:01:08Plus, she has her bachelor's in business administration.
00:01:11You know what they don't teach in business school?
00:01:14Common sense. Relationships built on goodwill.
00:01:17That reminds me. Remember to stamp the customer's loyalty cards.
00:01:23How many rules are we up to now?
00:01:2772.
00:01:29The book is called 25 Rules for Running the Tomas Family Cafe.
00:01:34Go have a vacation.
00:01:37Promise to follow rule one.
00:01:39Don't change a thing.

00:07:51Tito Jasleen heard from Tito Mario, heard from Tito Jomari that you know who made a lot of money when he sold off that storefront.
00:07:58Who's you know who?
00:08:04That boy who took advantage of Tito Hari when he had to close the shop.
00:08:08Oh, the boy who broke Sarita's heart.
00:08:13We're not talking about that.
00:08:19Whoever moves in, I hope they drink a lot of coffee.
00:08:22Accountants or cops or air traffic controllers.
00:08:27I'm praying for a barber shop.
00:08:30I need a new one.
00:08:31What's going on?
00:08:40Can I talk to you for a second?
00:08:43Are Bella and Papa okay?
00:08:45Yeah.
00:08:45Yeah, I just need to talk to Sari for a moment.
00:08:49In private.
00:08:50What?
00:08:57Did Papa tell you that rent is overdue?
00:09:00What?
00:09:01No.
00:09:02I just got off the phone with Mr. Lyons, the landlord.
00:09:05He said that Papa owes rent several months.
00:09:10It must be a mistake.
00:09:11It's not.
00:09:13I found this at the back of Papa's desk.
00:09:19Oh my God.
00:09:21I knew Papa was having trouble making a profit, but I didn't know we were in a massive sinkhole.
00:09:28Mr. Lyons loves Papa and loves little Manila, but gentrifiers are banging on his door and if he can't make steady money on this cafe...
00:09:37All the goodwill in the world isn't going to save Papa.
00:09:42I have to figure out a way to keep the cafe going.
00:09:46What happened to getting out in the world?
00:09:49It has to wait.
00:09:50This is Mama and Papa's legacy.
00:09:52They built it from nothing.
00:09:55So what do we do?
00:10:00I have an idea.
00:10:01Yeah.
00:10:01Hi, Ms. Costalas.
00:10:16I'm your number one fan.
00:10:17Something really awful happened today.
00:10:22Hi, Ms. Costalas.
00:10:23I've been following your career forever.
00:10:24And boy, do I need advice.
00:10:26Hi, yeah, my name is Sarian.
00:10:30Do you have any advice for saving my dad's business?
00:10:32Because, you know, the sky is falling.
00:10:33The sky is falling.
00:10:34Can you...
00:10:36Um, I meant...
00:10:39Hey, is what I meant.
00:10:41Hi.
00:10:42Um, are you here for the meet-up?
00:10:47No, I just love pacing awkwardly in hotel lobbies.
00:10:51Is that North American custom?
00:10:53Um, sorry, I'm not used to these things.
00:10:55Fresh in from bears.
00:10:57I'm fresh in from...
00:10:59Uptown.
00:11:02Parlez-vous le français?
00:11:04Oh, uh, may we, mademoiselle.
00:11:07Est-ce que vous savez où je pourrais prendre un aperot?
00:11:10Yeah, I don't actually speak French myself.
00:11:16Gabe, qu'a place?
00:11:18Sorry.
00:11:20Thomas.
00:11:20It's Rosario, isn't it?
00:11:25Charo?
00:11:26And it's Gabriel, I'm betting.
00:11:29Mm-hmm.
00:11:29Gabo?
00:11:30Not bad.
00:11:33Uh, would you like a taste of home?
00:11:41Uh, do you always bring your own coffee with you everywhere?
00:11:44Not just coffee.
00:11:46Capeng Baraco.
00:11:53My father has a cafe in Little Manila.
00:11:55I'm hoping to impress our host tonight because I, uh, need her advice on how to handle a little...
00:12:01Mm.
00:12:02That is incredible.
00:12:04Do you sell it?
00:12:06In the cafe?
00:12:08Mm.
00:12:08No, no, no, no, the beans, they're, they're exceptional.
00:12:12Can I have some more?
00:12:13Yeah.
00:12:14Oh, yeah, uh, so, um, the beans, uh, we grow them at our farm back home, and then I roast
00:12:22them here.
00:12:22I've been toying with the idea of selling them, but, uh...
00:12:25Whoa!
00:12:25Oh!
00:12:26Oh, wow, wow.
00:12:27Okay.
00:12:28Oh, your suit!
00:12:29It's okay.
00:12:30It's okay.
00:12:31Uh, no, no, no, don't do that.
00:12:33Don't do that.
00:12:34No, no, no.
00:12:34Um...
00:12:34Wow, okay, wow, wow.
00:12:37Uh, okay, take it off.
00:12:38I can get it cleaned.
00:12:38I'll get it cleaned.
00:12:39No, no, listen.
00:12:40Yes, no, no, no, please.
00:12:41You don't have to.
00:12:42I can fix it.
00:12:43You don't.
00:12:43I'll get it done for tomorrow.
00:12:44You should just let me...
00:12:45No, please, let go.
00:12:46No, you, you let go.
00:12:47You don't.
00:12:48Let go.
00:12:48No, please, I, I will do it myself.
00:12:50It's fine.
00:12:51Let me...
00:12:51Let, let go.
00:12:52Listen, let me, okay?
00:12:54Don't be so stubborn.
00:12:58Okay, you win.
00:13:00I'm gonna go to the bathroom.
00:13:04Charlize Costalas.
00:13:15Do I know you?
00:13:18Uh, uh, sorry, I'm Costalas.
00:13:22A sky is falling.
00:13:23I, I've followed your career.
00:13:27I'm sorry, is there something I could do for you?
00:13:30I was wondering if you would like to try some coffee.
00:13:33But, uh...
00:13:37Maybe another time.
00:13:41Can we send someone to clean up that mess in the foyer, please?
00:13:44It's so early.
00:14:00It's all hands on deck until Papa's Cafe is profitable again.
00:14:05Can I just make a donation and go back to bed?
00:14:08How much do you have?
00:14:09A job at a clinic and almost six figures in student loans.
00:14:15Hmm, right.
00:14:16So you can strain the oil and vanilla.
00:14:20Okay.
00:14:21Mama and Papa never wanted us to make pastries.
00:14:24I think we have to try.
00:14:25Traditional Filipino pastries to go with our traditional Filipino coffee.
00:14:28Papa won't like it.
00:14:30He'll understand when he sees that I'm trying to keep his business running.
00:14:33Oh, my favorite Filipino muffin.
00:14:42Oh, they smell delicious.
00:14:44They look delicious.
00:14:46Taste test.
00:14:51All right.
00:14:53So far, this bakery cafe idea is going much better than my disastrous networking night.
00:14:57You have to tell us what happened.
00:14:59Yeah, we'll only keep working after our cabayon break if you spill the tea.
00:15:03I spilled the coffee all over the very fancy hotel belles and lobby.
00:15:08And some hot Filipino dude from France.
00:15:11No!
00:15:12Well, that's one way to make a splash.
00:15:14And, of course, the Charlize Castales witnessed it.
00:15:17A chance to make a good impression on a legend at turning losses in a profit.
00:15:22Poof.
00:15:23What did you do?
00:15:25Ripped off a cute stranger's clothes in a puddle of coffee and forgot how words work.
00:15:28Please tell me you at least got a date out of this.
00:15:31Only a dripping wet jacket.
00:15:33I left it with Tita Carmelita for a white glove cleaning service.
00:15:36And a hot French Filipino dude?
00:15:38Disappeared like Cinderella after the wall.
00:15:41I left a message with the hotel front desk with my info.
00:15:44So we could still lead to a date.
00:15:48No.
00:15:49This is no time for romantic fiction, Daniel Steele.
00:15:52Muffins over men.
00:15:58Oh, thanks, Issa.
00:16:07Those were good.
00:16:08I'll take a box.
00:16:09One cup of buy-up to go with your coffee and have a Kapang Barakko kind of day.
00:16:14Cheers.
00:16:15Oh, I think the plan's working.
00:16:16People love the new muffins.
00:16:18I mean, even Tito Reyes likes them.
00:16:20Free!
00:16:20It's my favorite flavor.
00:16:22Maybe if we paid once in a while, Papa could make the bills.
00:16:30Did I lie?
00:16:31It's my favorite.
00:16:41Hmm.
00:16:43Shh.
00:16:44She's sleeping.
00:16:49You're going to have to sell a lot of those muffins to cover the rent backlog.
00:16:54Then that's what I'll do.
00:16:56Maybe I can raise the price.
00:16:58Mama and Papa can't expect you to solve their financial problems while they're on vacation.
00:17:03Especially since they decided to keep it to themselves.
00:17:06You saw how hard they worked to make life easier for us.
00:17:10We never missed out on a school trip or a pizza day or a new pair of shoes.
00:17:15Yeah, you're right.
00:17:16They deserve our help back.
00:17:18Please don't tell me we owe money to somebody else.
00:17:28Is it the mafia this time?
00:17:31Little Manila Street Festival.
00:17:34Yeah, they hold that every year.
00:17:35They're promising thousands of guests this year.
00:17:37That's way bigger than last year.
00:17:39Potential customers.
00:17:40And look, the best booth prize has been increased to $25,000.
00:17:45We need to compete.
00:17:48Let's do it.
00:17:48Papa won't like that.
00:17:51How do you do that?
00:17:53It's like an older sister alarm clock that goes off when our middle sister's getting somewhere.
00:17:57You know I'm right.
00:17:58Papa says that kind of thing is brash, flashy, kind of thrashy.
00:18:05Good thing he won't have to see it.
00:18:06He can see the giant check after we win.
00:18:08I like that part.
00:18:09They're not just going to give you first place.
00:18:13I took classes in this stuff.
00:18:15We analyzed what past winners did, look up who the judges are and what they like, do market research and survey our customers.
00:18:22At least we'll give ourselves a fighting chance.
00:18:24Do you guys mind locking up while I'll do the laundry room?
00:18:31Out of the goodness of your heart?
00:18:32Or because the laundry goes to Tita Carmelitas, where hot French Filipino dude's jacket is, where you might run into his?
00:18:40Stop it.
00:18:42Speaking of fighting chances, you need to stop by home first.
00:18:45Definitely.
00:18:46Put something cute on.
00:18:50Seriously, you two, stop it.
00:18:52You look pretty, sorry.
00:19:09How much do I owe you for the jacket, Tita?
00:19:12The very expensive designer man suit jacket that smelled of sandalwood and sexiness.
00:19:18Mm-hmm.
00:19:19Same deal as for your parents.
00:19:24A couple of pounds of coffee for each load and free cuping baraco for the week.
00:19:28No, you need to be paid.
00:19:29You have bills, too.
00:19:30Don't argue with your elders.
00:19:33This is what we do, little Manila.
00:19:36The OG way, as you could say.
00:19:41Do you have a stalker?
00:19:43Hmm?
00:19:43No, that's a...
00:19:46Hi.
00:19:47Thanks for that note.
00:19:49Honestly, I felt like it was the least I could do.
00:19:51It's a good excuse to see the little Manila you mentioned.
00:19:54A taste of home.
00:19:55You're welcome.
00:19:57Thank you very much.
00:19:58Tita Carmelita, Tita Reyna, Tita Jasleen.
00:20:02This is Gabe.
00:20:04It's nice to meet you.
00:20:06And it's so good to see you again, sorry.
00:20:10You too.
00:20:11Even without the hot drink all over you.
00:20:15Is this your new boyfriend?
00:20:17I'm so glad you're getting back on the horse.
00:20:22Ride it.
00:20:24Ride it.
00:20:27Boyfriend?
00:20:28Girlfriend?
00:20:29Dirty laundry never lies.
00:20:31We met yesterday.
00:20:33Actually, um, new in town.
00:20:35Then you need to show him our neighborhood, Rosario.
00:20:38Be a good hostess.
00:20:40I have work to do.
00:20:42You work too hard, sorry.
00:20:45Go.
00:20:45This is what your mother would say.
00:20:47He's probably too busy.
00:20:49I'd love a tour.
00:20:50And we should respect the wishes of our elders.
00:20:55Honestly, if you don't go out with him, I will.
00:20:58Don't be responsible for breaking up Carmelita's marriage, sorry.
00:21:02And a one-night fling can turn into something more.
00:21:06If you do it right, just ask Carmelita.
00:21:11Go for a walk.
00:21:12Show him the real neighborhood.
00:21:14And the real sorry.
00:21:17I like the sound of that.
00:21:19One tour.
00:21:20Coming right up.
00:21:22Bring him to karaoke later.
00:21:23Cheers.
00:21:32Cheers.
00:21:33Cheers.
00:21:37Oh, I love the architecture of this building.
00:21:39It has a great history, too.
00:21:40And the ivy's so pretty.
00:21:42Hey, sorry.
00:21:43Hey.
00:21:45Hi, sorry.
00:21:47That's Tito Siblaia.
00:21:49He's running for counselor.
00:21:50His wife has a martial arts studio around the corner, and their son just got into the Hudson
00:21:54School of the Arts.
00:21:55Dancer.
00:21:58You're like the TMZ for the neighborhood.
00:22:01The good thing about Little Manila, or the laneways as we call it, is that everyone knows
00:22:04everyone.
00:22:05The bad thing is that everyone knows everyone.
00:22:08And their business.
00:22:10Yeah.
00:22:10Well, I'm glad that Tito's had your number.
00:22:15Because that is a push nobody can resist.
00:22:18Like a gale force wind.
00:22:21Well, they're your superpower, I think.
00:22:24They remind me back home.
00:22:26Of all the Tito's from my teeny tiny village.
00:22:28Do you miss it?
00:22:34I didn't think I did.
00:22:36I've kind of been going wherever the wind tipped me.
00:22:40School.
00:22:41Travel.
00:22:43I went to the rough culinary school of Paris.
00:22:47Wow.
00:22:47Oh, this is my favorite patio.
00:22:53Oh, I love it.
00:22:55Right?
00:22:55So charming with the flowers.
00:22:57And I love outdoor seating.
00:23:03Maybe it's a good thing that the wind dropped you here.
00:23:06To remember what you missed about home.
00:23:09Where else have you been?
00:23:11Uh, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, Argentina, France.
00:23:17Um, none of it felt like somewhere I wanted to stay.
00:23:21Not yet.
00:23:23I wish I could travel to even half those places.
00:23:28Mostly I just try to keep our little corner of the world going these days.
00:23:32What's the problem?
00:23:33All the little Filipino businesses are being gobbled up.
00:23:36Like, Tito Hari lost his small printing business next door after a heartbreaking deal with my ex-boyfriend, actually.
00:23:46Ah, is that why he's your ex?
00:23:47Ah, bingo!
00:23:51I can't let what happened to Tito Hari happen to my parents.
00:23:54Yeah.
00:23:55Well, of course he wrecks wherever he is.
00:24:00Oh, do you mind if I...
00:24:01No.
00:24:02It's my parents' first time away from the shop, so they're a little bit OTT.
00:24:06You didn't check in with us today?
00:24:07Ugh, it's barely been a day.
00:24:09Tito Sayo told Tito Margo that Tito Carmelita said you have a boyfriend.
00:24:15He's just a friend.
00:24:18Hey!
00:24:20Bad connection.
00:24:23Love!
00:24:24Love you!
00:24:25Right!
00:24:25Remember, don't change anything!
00:24:28Sorry about that.
00:24:30Tita power.
00:24:31Mm-hmm.
00:24:32Your parents are very cute.
00:24:34You say they were in the cafe together?
00:24:35Well, somehow remaining happily married.
00:24:38It's a magical balance.
00:24:40Or some kind of witchcraft.
00:24:43And it's like that with me and my business partner.
00:24:45I do the fun, creative stuff.
00:24:46He does the serious stuff.
00:24:47Money, paperwork.
00:24:49I drink meat plants.
00:24:50Mm.
00:24:51The perfect business marriage.
00:24:54Hmm.
00:24:54What about your family?
00:24:55I have eight sisters.
00:24:59All doctors.
00:25:00My mother is a saint.
00:25:02My dad is, uh...
00:25:04She's demanding.
00:25:08Believe me, I get that.
00:25:11Deeply.
00:25:12He thinks my dreams are childish.
00:25:14My dad thinks I'm a literal child.
00:25:17You have such a good head on your shoulders.
00:25:19And vision.
00:25:20I saw that immediately.
00:25:23Seems like it's about time we show our dads who we've grown up to be.
00:25:28Yeah.
00:25:28Mm-hmm.
00:25:28You're totally right.
00:25:30They need to know.
00:25:31Mm-hmm.
00:25:31Want to make it a pact?
00:25:33We will both prove to our fathers that we are worthy adults.
00:25:38Deal.
00:25:39Yeah?
00:25:47Yeah.
00:25:48Deal.
00:25:53So, up for something else?
00:26:01We're going to take a quick break, but we'll be back with more karaoke.
00:26:11Shut up, shut up.
00:26:11Shut up, shut up.
00:26:12Woo!
00:26:15All right.
00:26:16Tita?
00:26:17My favorites?
00:26:18Everyone is so welcoming.
00:26:21More like they smell fresh blood.
00:26:23And we're back for another round of karaoke.
00:26:25All of them.
00:26:25All of them.
00:26:26Listen, I have a confession.
00:26:28Our next singer is...
00:26:29Sorry, Tomas.
00:26:31I signed you up.
00:26:34Go!
00:26:35Go!
00:26:35Have fun making your own, you know?
00:26:36You'll have a good time.
00:26:38Go, sorry!
00:26:39Woo!
00:26:42Woo!
00:26:43Yeah.
00:26:44Sorry!

00:26:47Woo!
00:26:50All right.

00:27:05He's new?
00:27:06No.
00:27:06He's single, and he's ready to mingle.
00:27:08Ha ha ha ha!

00:27:32He's like 312.
00:27:33You're like 312.
00:27:34No, it's like 312.
00:27:35You're going pretty.
00:27:36And I want to play.
00:27:36Yeah.

00:27:37I know.
00:27:38Take my hand, I'm an honest man, I would never let you down
00:27:46I would break my heart just to give you half if you'd only hear me out
00:27:56I'm not a rich man, I won't be buying any diamond rings just yet
00:28:05But if you let me, I will show you I have so much more to say
00:28:15Are you going to be, are you going to be mine?
00:28:27Are you going to be, are you going to be mine?
00:28:35I wonder why not let your heart decide
00:28:47Decide
00:29:02That bouncing ball is so quick
00:29:17No time for hangovers

00:30:03We're saving Papa's Cafe from ruin, remember?
00:30:11What is that delicious smell?
00:30:13Oh!
00:30:21Cassava Bipinka
00:30:23That's what I smell
00:30:25It's heaven
00:30:26Toasted coconut and sugar
00:30:29You're getting really good at this
00:30:32Will it be enough?
00:30:35Ugh, I shouldn't be running on our own dates right now
00:30:38Don't think I didn't hear you come in so late last night
00:30:42Must have been good
00:30:44Date, he was so sweet and so nice
00:30:47And honestly, we had so much fun together
00:30:49So why are you making it sound like a problem?
00:30:52You should be happy that...
00:30:54Guys, look!
00:30:57What's she yelling about?
00:30:58There's a lineup outside
00:31:00A lineup for our coffee
00:31:04My karaoke show worked?
00:31:06Something did?
00:31:08Okay, here's how we're gonna handle the crowd
00:31:10Sam will take orders
00:31:11Salina will pull the espressos
00:31:13I'll do the fancy drinks
00:31:14We divide and conquer on the baked goods
00:31:15And don't forget to take pictures for the socials
00:31:18When the cafe is full
00:31:19We'll be able to pay up mom and papa's debt in no time
00:31:21Oh, Mr. Power
00:31:22So many new customers
00:31:32Wait, this isn't for us
00:31:36Continental Bakery
00:31:43You just started selling baked goods
00:31:47Yeah, but we don't have that
00:31:52He's the Beyoncé of bakers
00:31:56He's...
00:31:57Gabe?
00:32:10No wonder the whole neighborhood wanted to come and see this
00:32:13It won't be any good
00:32:14We're obviously gonna try it, right?
00:32:16If you're this flashy
00:32:18You must be hiding something
00:32:20You sound just like papa
00:32:21Come on!
00:32:23No, I'm gonna head back to our police
00:32:24Okay
00:32:26I'll just eat your share, too
00:32:29Oh, look at the pastries
00:32:48They're too beautiful to eat
00:32:50I still would
00:32:51Oh, 100%
00:32:52I would eat it all
00:32:53It's so gorgeous
00:32:54Why wouldn't Saria want to see this?
00:32:58We should take her something
00:32:59It's like a portal to a magical baking world
00:33:03Imagine if we could afford all of this
00:33:05Gorgeous
00:33:06Tasteful
00:33:07And what the what is that fancy coffee machine?
00:33:11Honestly, it is like Continental Bakery is gonna set a whole new standard for Little Manila
00:33:19We'd like to try
00:33:21Hey
00:33:24Hi
00:33:26Um
00:33:27I'm Celen
00:33:29Your bakery is stunning, Chef
00:33:32Oh, Gabe is fine
00:33:33Thanks for coming to the opening, Celen
00:33:34And...
00:33:36Sam
00:33:36Honestly, I could live here
00:33:39Why would you settle for some free samples?
00:33:42That's very neighborly of you
00:33:43We're neighbors?
00:33:45Yeah, our parents own the cafe next door
00:33:47Oh, I haven't been able to explore
00:33:49I've just been to the kitchen and hotel and back
00:33:51You understand?
00:33:52Oh, well stop by if you ever need anything
00:33:54A cup of sugar, coffee beans
00:33:56Our sister makes her very own special roast
00:33:58Did you mention your sister's name?
00:34:10Did you mention free pastries?
00:34:12No outside food allowed
00:34:30It's for you
00:34:32Lighten up
00:34:33You should see what they have over there
00:34:35Especially the chef
00:34:36Yeah
00:34:37How could you not tell us that he was hot coffee spill guy before we went in?
00:34:41Ata's just embarrassed because she was flirting with him
00:34:43I was not
00:34:45And it is pretty great that he's now literally your boy next door
00:34:49It's not great
00:34:51Just when I meet a guy who actually seems genuine
00:34:54And who I actually connect with
00:34:56He turns out to be the competition
00:34:57He's not actually competition
00:35:00We're Filipino-based
00:35:02They're a patisserie
00:35:03Everyone loves French and fancy
00:35:05We're already losing customers
00:35:07Even Tito Reyes is over there
00:35:08And he never leaves his post
00:35:09Have some faith, sorry
00:35:12It's their first day
00:35:13It's just because everything is new and shiny
00:35:16And it'll all work out
00:35:18Maybe you'll feel better if you have one of your boyfriend's macarons
00:35:22No!
00:35:23I refuse to try them
00:35:24He's going to put us out of business with these
00:35:26You need a mental health afternoon
00:35:29Close up early
00:35:31No time!
00:35:32I have to figure out how to get our customers back
00:35:34Fine
00:35:36Do your pouty stubborn thing about Loverboy then
00:35:39Sammy and I are going home
00:35:41And he's not
00:35:49My Loverboy
00:35:50Wait
00:35:52Oh!
00:35:54Oh!
00:35:54Oh, your Tito's told me you wouldn't mind if I came by
00:36:00Did you know Gabriel trained in Switzerland?
00:36:25And Michelin stars all around the world
00:36:27Oh!
00:36:27Interesting!
00:36:29You didn't mention anything about this
00:36:31When I asked you what you did
00:36:32You evaded every question
00:36:33I just promised my business partner
00:36:35That I wouldn't tell anyone until we opened
00:36:37And I told you he does all the logistics
00:36:39So
00:36:40Yeah
00:36:41Right
00:36:42Your perfect marriage
00:36:43Perfect
00:36:44Ooh
00:36:48Free cassava bibinca?
00:36:50Oh
00:36:50Yes
00:36:51It's something new
00:36:52I'm trying
00:36:53To increase sales
00:36:54Aww
00:36:55Your mama and papa would be proud
00:36:58Mmm
00:36:59So delicious
00:37:01I'm sorry
00:37:02That is so good
00:37:03Oh my god
00:37:04Would you like to buy some for home?
00:37:06Oh, baby
00:37:07We are so full
00:37:09Oh
00:37:10And broke
00:37:11Another day, baby
00:37:13Well, goodnight
00:37:17I'll be spending my evening
00:37:19Thinking through how to rearrange
00:37:20My new plans for the cafe
00:37:21Into new, new plans
00:37:23Given the competition
00:37:25I mean, we don't have to be in competition
00:37:28Right?
00:37:30I just got rejected by the Tito's
00:37:32Who I've known my whole life
00:37:33For something I made
00:37:33Using my own mama's
00:37:35Traditional
00:37:36Recipe
00:37:37I see your point
00:37:45Mmm
00:37:46So
00:37:47May the best waker win
00:37:49I
00:37:53Please do not let the beautiful baker boy
00:37:56Get caught in the crossfire
00:37:57I'm standing right here
00:38:02Great sign
00:38:24I made it myself
00:38:27I'm sure you would have had one
00:38:30Made at great expense
00:38:31But we do things differently
00:38:32Oh, why
00:38:33Good morning to you, too
00:38:35Looks like you're also an early riser
00:38:39The dough is

00:38:43Bread
00:38:44It's a baker
00:38:45Joe
00:38:46Free Vivinka
00:38:47What, are you trying to steal customers?
00:38:49Uh, no
00:38:50I'm trying to get back my patrons
00:38:51After you stole them
00:38:53Oh, I'm not afraid of a little competition
00:38:55I told you I have eight older sisters
00:38:56But so
00:38:58Well, I'm the middle child
00:39:02So I'm not afraid to lay patiently and wait
00:39:04Until it's time to make
00:39:06The kill
00:39:08Well, so much for may the best baker win
00:39:12I'll spare and
00:39:14Something
00:39:15And warp
00:39:16Ouch

00:39:37Aren't you tired yet?

00:39:42And baking pans

00:39:46Free croissant with every order
00:39:57That's original
00:39:58Yeah
00:39:59So you compete by copying
00:40:00I call it a level playing field
00:40:04Okay then

00:42:44How do I know you didn't poison it?
00:42:49Don't you trust me?
00:42:50Hot
00:43:02Hot
00:43:03Hot
00:43:04Water
00:43:05Ha ha
00:43:05Point
00:43:06Hello
00:43:19Tatai
00:43:20Oi
00:43:20Your sister
00:43:22Your sister showed me your social media
00:43:24Goofing off
00:43:25You're embarrassing yourself
00:43:27That's all in good fun
00:43:29Ah
00:43:30How does fun make money?
00:43:33People like me here
00:43:34People like the village idiot
00:43:36I spoke to the dean
00:43:39I spoke to the dean
00:43:39Pulled in some favors
00:43:40They opened up a spot for you
00:43:42Don't embarrass me again
00:43:44I don't want to
00:43:45So, uh
00:43:54How much of that did you see?
00:44:00I'm guessing that was your dad
00:44:02Unfortunately
00:44:04You need a break
00:44:08Want to step into my office?
00:44:12It's just the alley
00:44:13But sometimes it's good to get outside, you know?
00:44:17Yeah
00:44:32You're lucky you could talk to your parents
00:44:38Hmm
00:44:39Sometimes they just pretend to hear me
00:44:42But
00:44:44I always know they love me
00:44:46And the community loves you, too
00:44:49Papa always says
00:44:51If you're there for the community
00:44:52The community will be there for you
00:44:54You can't buy that
00:44:57Well
00:44:59You've bought a lot of stuff
00:45:02I would love to have
00:45:03Yeah
00:45:03Building a business at your level
00:45:05Is unbelievable
00:45:06Well, tell that to Tata
00:45:08He thinks it's
00:45:10Fervilous
00:45:11And I guess somewhere
00:45:13Deep inside
00:45:14I guess I believe him
00:45:16You can't
00:45:18I'm sure he just wants the best for you
00:45:22He's got a weird way of showing it
00:45:26Mine, too
00:45:27He wrote a 72-rule manual
00:45:29For running the cafe while he's away
00:45:31That's how little he trusts me
00:45:33Oh, that's crazy
00:45:33Yeah
00:45:34I'm designing this booth
00:45:39For the Little Manila Street Festival
00:45:40And I'm terrified
00:45:41He's going to be furious at me for it
00:45:43Because
00:45:44It's not in his rules
00:45:46Why do it, then?
00:45:50There's a
00:45:51Big competition for the best booth
00:45:53And winners always see a boom in business
00:45:55Actually, it'd be a great idea for you
00:45:59What a way to impress your dad
00:46:00It's a brilliant idea
00:46:04Okay
00:46:06One problem
00:46:08Um, you might have missed the deadline for entry
00:46:11My business partner can convince anyone to change their mind
00:46:14It's fine
00:46:15My ex was like that
00:46:18Only happy if he was winning
00:46:21Preferably at someone else's expense
00:46:23Well, I promise
00:46:24That I'll never backstab you
00:46:26Or Little Manila
00:46:28So
00:46:30You're going to do a big splashy booth?
00:46:34It's a secret
00:46:35Okay
00:46:37You should tell a story
00:46:41The process of
00:46:43Farming
00:46:44Roasting
00:46:46And making the perfect cup of coffee
00:46:48People love origin stories
00:46:51That's a great idea
00:46:54Do you want to
00:46:57Wave the white flag on this little rivalry of ours
00:47:00And focus on this?
00:47:02Are you saying I beat you then?
00:47:06No, I'm saying it's a tie
00:47:10I think you're conceding
00:47:12Which means I won
00:47:15No, I think we both win
00:47:18I win
00:47:25You set me up
00:47:27What'd you do?
00:47:36What'd you do?

00:57:50as per rule 43
00:57:53i already checked my figures

00:57:57and an aggregate average
00:57:58i'm not sure i used those terms sorry
00:58:02the words might be business school
00:58:03but you inspired me to go there papa
00:58:06i thought i wanted to do my own thing

00:58:13together

00:58:35about how you and your mom started selling dolls when you were just a kid
